Jonathan McConnell was born about 1825 in Greene County, PA. His family is listed in Greene County, PA under William McConnell in the 1830 census.
By 1840 this family moved to Morgan County, Ohio where McConnelsville is located. This family is distantly related to the founder of McConnelsville. Listed next to William McConnell, Jonathan's father, were several Woorkman families. They must have known each other since Jonathan McConnell is next listed next to a Worrkman family in Coshocton County in the 1850 census.

On April 10, 1857, according to court records, "John McConnell, Jacob McConnell and John Smith did unlawfully play together at a certain game for money." The witness against them was Joseph W. Morrison, who in the 1860 census was a farm laborer living in Cold Springs Township. John McConnell is referred to was John W. McConnell in many of the records. Bail was provided by John W. McConnell, Moses Spurgeon and Wesley King. Moses Spurgeon lived near Jacob McConnell according to the 1860 census. Wesley King is listed immediately after John McConnell's family in the 1860 census. Wesley King was age 71, from Virginia and held property of $1,470 and had personal assets of $600 in the 1860 census. John Smith may be the John Smith in the 1860
